We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law,
Vasquez-Zavala v. Ashcroft, 324 F.3d 1105, 1107 (9th Cir. 2003), and we deny the
petition for review.
The agency correctly concluded that Manzano was statutorily ineligible for
cancellation of removal because of his conviction for discharge of a firearm in a
grossly negligent manner in violation of Cal. Penal Code § 246.3. See 8 U.S.C.
§ 1229b(b)(1)(C); Valerio-Ochoa v. INS, 241 F.3d 1092, 1095-96 (9th Cir. 2001).
In light of our disposition, we do not reach Manzano’s remaining
contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
